Terrestrial XL
The Terrestrial XL enclosure by Tarantula Cribs is designed for invertebrates and small vertebrates that need a bit more legroom to live comfortably. Measuring a generous 18 x 12 x 12 inches, this enclosure provides ample space for large terrestrial tarantulas, small reptiles like geckos, or amphibians such as frogs that benefit from floor space and consistent environmental control.
Constructed from crystal-clear, UV-resistant acrylic, the Terrestrial XL offers full visibility into your pet’s world while maintaining durability and ease of cleaning. Laser-drilled 3 mm ventilation holes on multiple sides allow for steady airflow, helping to regulate humidity and air quality for species that are sensitive to stagnant conditions.
Whether you're housing a showpiece tarantula or setting up a planted enclosure for a small herp, the Terrestrial XL offers the space, airflow, and viewing experience needed to keep both you and your animal happy.
Best suited for: Large tarantulas (5"+ leg span), burrowing invertebrates, small lizards, or amphibians that thrive in terrestrial setups. The generous footprint allows for more complex scaping and enrichment, perfect for keepers looking to create a naturalistic habitat.

What types of pets can I keep in this enclosure?
This acrylic enclosure is the perfect Terrestrial habitat, designed for creatures needing space to roam. Our Terrestrial Terrain enclosures are ideal for tarantulas who want to explore and wander or hunt for prey. This cage was designed to prevent our pets from climbing too high and getting hurt. We highly recommend this enclosure for terrestrial tarantulas such as the Mexican Redrump, Assassin bugs, or Beetles.
What is the benefit of acrylic over glass?
Acrylic enclosures offer several advantages over glass when housing invertebrates, making them a preferred choice for many keepers and hobbyists. One of the primary benefits is their lightweight nature, which makes acrylic enclosures easier to handle, move, and position, especially in setups involving multiple or stacked habitats. Additionally, acrylic provides superior clarity compared to glass, offering better light transmission and a more vivid view of the enclosure's interior, which is ideal for observing invertebrate behavior or showcasing display species. Durability is another key factor; acrylic is significantly more impact-resistant than glass, reducing the risk of shattering in accidental drops or bumps. Finally, acrylic provides better thermal insulation than glass, helping to maintain stable temperatures with greater efficiency—an essential consideration for species requiring consistent warmth. These qualities make acrylic a versatile and practical material for invertebrate enclosures.
First bioactive, what else should I add to the enclosure?
Creating a bioactive enclosure is an excellent way to provide your reptile or arthropod with a naturalistic, self-sustaining habitat. By mimicking natural ecosystems, bioactive setups utilize living organisms to help manage waste, support plant growth, and maintain overall enclosure health. For beginners, setting up a successful bioactive enclosure starts with choosing the right substrate tailored to the species’ environmental needs. We highly recommend you check out our guide, which is all about Bioactive for Beginners, before taking the plunge into the world of bioactive arthropod keeping!
